Introduction

Faculty of Engineering Sciences & Technology at Hamdard University is the true center of excellence in cutting edge technologies and provides the most congenial environment for research in various fields of engineering and Information Technology.

Hamdard Institute of Information Technology (HIIT)Main Campus

Hamdard Institute of Information Technology was established in 1997. HIIT – a body for imparting quality education and training is among one of the pioneers to introduce Information Technology education in Pakistan. It has a vast physical structure spread over 70,000 square feet which is well equipped with state of the art technology laboratories and spacious lecture halls to fulfill its promising quality education. Surely, faculty plays a major role to provide high quality education and to build individuals so that they can compete in the market. HIIT truly realizes this fact and offers one of the best and inspiring faculties in Engineering and Technology by assuring an educational experience of highest quality. HIIT is one of the only few privileged institutions in private sector which offer engineering degrees recognized by Pakistan Engineering Council.

HIIT has a strong motive to distribute modern and emerging areas of engineering, science and technology. Thus it offers a variety of graduate and undergraduate programs related to Information Technology. It highly focuses to prepare its graduates that are capable of competing with the graduates of any institution at the international level.

Hamdard Institute of Information Technology (HIIT) City Campus (Graduate School of Engineering Sciences and Information Technology)

HIIT City Campus is especially geared towards graduate studies and is also catering to the needs of professionals through short courses, certificate and diploma programs. The city campus currently offers Masters, M.Phil. and Ph.D. programs in Telecommunication Engineering, Software Engineering, and Information Technology.

B.E. (Energy Engineering)

The emergence of Hamdard University on the educational scene of Pakistan is relatively recent phenomenon but the progress it has made so far is phenomenal. The university however, does not rest on its achievements and looking ahead for future expansion to be at par with renowned universities. The location of this institution is 28 km from the commercial centre on the main highway leading to Bund Murad Khan in the vicinity of Sindh - Balochistan border.

The university’s location is ideal for Wind energy, Solar energy and Biomass energy. Solar energy and Wind energy laboratories are available for experiments. FEST has a unique facility of indigenous development of laboratories equipment. The students are provided impetus to work in such laboratories. Renewable energy is generated from natural resources such as sunshine, wind, rain, tides and geothermal heat which are renewable (naturally replenished). Thus renewable energy technology ranges from solar power, wind power, hydropower for electricity and biomass and bio fuels for transportation. Renewable energy is called the “clean energy” or green energy because it doesn’t pollute air or the water.

The electricity we use every day doesn’t come directly from the earth, but we make electricity using the earth resources, like coal or natural gas. Both coal and natural gas are called “fossil fuels” because they were formed deep under the earth during the dinosaur times. The problem is that fossil fuels can’t be replaced once we use them, they are gone forever.

According to recent data, a large percentage of energy is derived globally from renewable sources. Only wind energy contributes more than 100 GW in developed countries. These data reveal the domestic as well as world market for skilled engineers is on high demand.The energy engineering program prepares the students for fill the gap of professionals in this area.

B.E. (Telecommunications Engineering)

The exponential growth of telecommunication has changed this world into a global village. The power in telecommunication indicates the digital sovereignty and military prowess of a country. The last decade has seen great changes in the fields of telecommunication. Simple telephony has been taken over by mobile and cellular communication, which is going through a merger with Internet technology.Above all there is a big move towards privatization of the telecommunication industry, following which there shall be an open competition in the market. Time is not far away when industry will face scarcity of telecommunication engineers in the country; with the result that fresh graduates will find themselves in a flourishing and demanding market of telecommunication engineering as soon as they pass out from the University.To work effectively in this rapidly growing field, the telecommunication engineers must understand both hardware and software techniques and must effectively use both techniques in order to design, build and test complex telecommunication systems. The overall program provides an environment that encourages creativity and excitement driven approach to deliver results. All these courses have an essential component of practical work.

MS (SE): Master of Science in Software Engineering

Software Engineering is a discipline concerned with the practical problems of developing large–scale software systems. Software engineers are the architects of the software components of a computer–based system, providing several levels of representation or blueprints leading to specifications through which programmers build modules of the systems. Software development methodologies and management techniques combine with theories from mathematics and computer science in a cost–effective manner to solve real–world system development problems.
